Re: Start database ved AT.exe

* jj:
Hi Ng

When I use the AT.exe to schedule a job and I write:
at.exe 22:54 /every:24 "c:\test.bat" this job works just perfect.

In the bat file I have wrote:

copy c:\TestDB.mdb c:\testfolder (I copy the Test database from C to C:\testfolder)

Then when I Change the test.bat file to:

"C:\Programmer\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\msaccess.exe" "C:\TestDB.mdb" (I activate the test database) - This doesn't work!!!!

It works when I double click the bat-file

TIA
jj



This is a complete guess, but maybe worth a try. Put the TestDB.mdb in a directory. (c:\temp\TestDB.mdb). Maybe the Scheduler has trouble writing to C:\. That would explain why it works for a logged in user.
